The lie made into the rule of the world.

  • I thought about it. You're right, I think. But even had I not thought about it, you'd still be right.

  • Sadly, that divisive rethoric seems to be the only thing you're capable of. Once again, completely ignoring constructive, cooperative thinking, to focus on namecalling and your ego.

  • A real entrepreneur would say he's an artisanal artist

  • the world should rather hail (...)

    That's a false dichotomy, a childish one, that hurts everyone.

    I presented a third option, one that would have direct positive effect locally, and long term positive effect globally. It's the part of my comment you ignored in favour of divisive rethoric.

    If only people, like you, weren't so short sighted, fixated on name calling and bullying. The choice isn't "who should we bully". We should just not bully at all. We could use the same effort to look for solutions instead.

  • If the distinction between “the DNS module worked” and “the internet behaved as if Cloudflare’s DNS was down” becomes the hill to die on, that says more about the fragility of the architecture than about the wording of the post.

    The internet didn't behave as if cloudflare's DNS was down? That's a shitty analogy you came up with. Everyone else knew it was cloudflare's proxying that was the issue.

    You're somehow weirdly attached to this shitty analogy, to the point that it destroys your, otherwise decent, messaging. Why are you making this into a hill to die on?

    This is ridiculous.

  • It's easy when you're a kid or a student.

    It's harder after.

  • Did it really happen if it's not photographed and uploaded to meta?

  • I really wonder about these people's reasoning? If only we call others names in public, bully them, they'll change their minds? Climate action will occur? It's clearly not working!

    These other countries are sovereign. EU has very little to offer them. So what's left is to convince them by being a great example of how climate action, energy security, economical wellfare and political stability can be balanced. They'll copy the policy, when it's an example worth following, to their benefit.

    Just throwing tantrums like Hoekstra is embarrassing and more importantly contra productive to the cause. I understand that reasonable people don't want to work together with that.

  • And just stop being depressed

  • It might be too late for OP to implement this, but I got this advise years ago and it works wonders: I use my own domain with a wildcard email inbox.

    So when a company asks for my email address, I respond with companyname@mydomain.tld.

    If ever I receive spam on companyname@mydomain.tld I just black hole that email address, and know never to trust that company again.

  • and still there's people that pretend perfection doesn't exist

  • As far as I understood lithium ion batteries still need oxygen from the air to burn.

    This is incorrect.

    The most common method for addressing a lithium-ion vehicle fire involves fully submerging the vehicle to allow the energy to dissipate as steam.

    However, many underground parking facilities in my area are beginning to ban electric cars, as more fires start to occur, and retrofitting the necessary tanks to ensure fire safety is proving challenging.

    Li-ion fire safety is a very difficult thing.

  • Hopefully the EU will write a strongly worded letter

  • The point isn’t that Cloudflare’s DNS literally failed. The point is that a disruption in one layer of Cloudflare’s stack was enough to break a huge chunk of the web.

    Everyone gets that argument. It's not novel.

    My point is that, when trying to communicate that point of view, it's stupid to focus in the post on cloudflare's DNS, as that's the part that worked fine. Especially since you had the perfect example right there.

  • Hackerman caught red pawed

  • I don't have any

  • Haha 😄

  • nor is it a bad thing that besides that they actually have some rights in the matter.

    To repeat the earlier argument: It is a bad thing, because it gives a false sense of privacy, reduces privacy hygiene, and anchors worse technology hindering improvememt.

    Technical solutions are only there if there is binding Incentive

    I'm not talking about the remote side. The technical solution has to be on the client side. Remote side should always be assumed to be a malicious actor.

    and compliance with EU law is absolutely a binding Incentive for "rest of the world", if they operate inside the EU, which most megacorps do.

    Sounds like you don't know that non-megacorps can also have a web server reachable from inside the EU? With ipv6 every device is individually addressable, and a potential web server.

    Additionally it's also not really binding for megacorps as we can see now. As the EU is completely reliant on the US, for energy, technology, defense, ... the US administration can just pressure EU council to change whatever law it wants. In case of a client side technical solution, that's not an issue.

    You sound like you've never actually worked for a tech company lol, compliance is everything.

    I have. That's just yet another one of your faulty reasonings.

    In summary, and to repeat: these laws are extremely short-sighted, fail in achieving their stated goals, bring forth an unnecessary cost of compliance for well willing actors, and actually make digital privacy worse by the false sense of protection it brings and because it mandates worse technology.
